Happy spring, Cynsational readers!

We’re taking a short break, and we hope that you can, too!

Our decision to embrace a winter hiatus, spring break and summer hiatus is a show of self-care, but it’s also our way of modeling that it’s okay to shift gears or hit PAUSE completely.

Take care, have fun, stay safe! We’ll be back in touch soon!

If you miss us, you’re welcome to check in with Cynthia at Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Pinterest or  LinkedIn or with Gayleen, Stephani, Bree, Gail, and AJ on Twitter.
